The Last Several Months

Since lots of life flew by these last few months while this blog was silent, here's a quick catch-up in picture form. Enjoy!

With love from us to you!

Today

Today was a beautiful spring day. We had a grand time homeschooling (M is Pre-K this year, and she likes to refer to our homeschool as "Smarty Party" or "Cute School." That's our girl.), meeting A on his lunch break, and painting among lots of other little tidbits of fun. This was one of those days that makes my heart overflow with gratitude to be in this place in life, doing this particular thing, surrounded by these beautiful people.

Rockin' the alphabet

So proud

Dear heavens, she's lovely.

Our girls

Joie de vivre

Love the raised hand at the end. Roller-coaster girl in the making.

After almost five years, I sometimes still can't believe this is our daily backdrop.

Artsy afternoon

Sweet concentration

Party People

Our Easter celebration has been so special today. We've just returned home from two gatherings with dear friends, and now we're resting before church tonight. Here are some pics A took after our lunch with small group buddies. I think the girls look lovely, even if the telltale signs of a yummy meal remain on their faces.

Thanks, Mama Z. and Pops, for the cutie Easter shirts!

He Is Risen!

We had a wonderful celebration of our risen King with friends this morning. M in particular was so excited for today. She's beginning to grasp the beautiful truths that define our life in Christ. I'm watching and worshiping with her. He is risen indeed!
